Teenage bowler Asad Raza completed a rare feat of claiming all 10 wickets in an innings in a domestic fixture yesterday, as Faisalabad claimed victory against Hyderabad in Pakistan Cricket Board’s Inter-Region U19 Tournament match at the Niaz Stadium in Hyderabad.

According to Express News, Faisalabad made a score of 346 in the first innings of the three-day match. However, the highlight of the match was Asad’s remarkable performance which saw him end with 10 scalps for 31 runs in the subsequent innings. His feat also included a brilliant hat-trick in his first over.

Failing to avoid the follow on, Hyderabad fell short of surpassing the visitors’ total as right-armer struck again, claiming four wickets in the hosts’ second innings. They only managed to score 156 and lost the match by an innings and 109 runs.

Cue 10 yr contract by Lahore Qalandars

Jokes aside pcb shud take note of such performances and ask local coaches admins etc to ensure such talent is groomed properly
 
Quite an Achievement considering he took only 6 wickets in 3 matches of Inter District Under 19 tournament when the top 3 wicket takers got 34, 32 & 30 wickets respectively.


He is a Pacer.
 
This may be the only feat in the history of cricket where a bowler not only has taken 10 wickets but also a hattrick in a single inning.
 
Yep.

Just go some information from a cousin that this guy isn't anything special.

Bowls in the low 120- to early 130 kph.

I heard about this guy during our Last English Summer season or there abouts... Intrigued by who this lad might be I did some research on the matter !!

Needless to say I was disappointed that we have over hyped yet another trundling Anwaresque bowler :facepalm:

He's a teenager and he's bowling 120-130 kph? His body hasn't filled out yet. Assuming he's developed properly, he could be a 150 kph striker in 5-7 years. Someone get this guy on a quality meal plan and development schedule at NCA.
 
I don't know but what are your expectations? Every one is S Akhtar? 120-130 at the tender age of 18-19. That can grow to 130-140 in no time when he is finished growing. And then 140-145 if he maintains his food intake and training.

This is nothing more than a mere dream. Unless, you're a super athlete your not going to gain 20-30 km/h at the age of 18.

Even putting on 10-15 km/h is a bit of a stretch.
 
The fact that he took 9 wickets means there is some thing special.
If he was average than there were other average player to playing with him. Such performances must be noted and looked for finding good talent.
Ma be he was just lucky but still deserves some follow-up
 
he doesn't need to be pacy at all.

the only thing that matters is can he swing it the same way in internationals.
 
As long as he keeps his feet on the ground and doesn't get a big head with this feat . A few more good performances he might get a chance to put his face on the world see. Good luck to him.Allah bless
 
So far what I have heared of him is he is 20 year old.Is he?

He has also 3 hat-tricks to his name so far.Incredible.


Yes He is 19-20. He has been called to Test Camp that is a big boost for the time being. He is work in progress.
 
That's definitely ball tampering there. Normal cricket balls don't swing like that no matter how talented you are. Either this guy is Wasim Akram + Steyn + Botham OR like I said, that's a tampered cricket ball.

Lol, look at the swing. What kind of balls are these?


http://www.pakpassion.net/ppforum/s...ets-in-a-single-innings&p=9152690#post9152690

look at this one

He is bowling huge indippers with a white ball.

How can he bowl them with a white ball. Further this pitch is not that green
[MENTION=138980]TalentSpotterPk[/MENTION] I heard his case was brought into spotlight by media. I dont think he is ready yet. Its too early for him to debut. Instead he should be selected for pak a tours etc

I think him getting called for camp is a good move. No He should not be picked for Pakistan A. NCA needs to do work on his fitness aswell as bowling development and than help him to play next Grade 1 Season. Than after a season or two once he is ready He should be picked for Pakistan A provided he does well at Fc level.
 
Don't need more bowlers who take 10 wickets in a match.

We badly need batsmen who can make a 100 in 10 overs.

hopefully they will not destroy his indippers.

look at the ball at 26 second, if he can bowl this in international level then i think that he should have been sent with emerging team where we are in final.

^^^That reminds of Anwar Ali in the U19 WC final for 2005-06!

Imran Khan used to bowl these in dippers at his prime as well
 
^^^Trundler, have you even seen him in a live match, how can one even make such a assessment based on couple of videos?

Every Pak fan knows a lot more than all of Pak cricketing knowledge combined!

haha exactly, the meaning of trundler is blown out if proportions on PP, a trundler doesn't even bowl 130kph, and this Raza guy is swinging and reversing both red and white balls, he must be able to reach at least low 140ks minimum, average would be a bit lower than that ofcourse
 
And he has been invited to the Test squad training camp.
 
I really hope he gets selected, it will be a breath of fresh air
don't want Rahats and Imrans

Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, growing up on the likes of Waqar, Wasim and Shoaib anyone who is not express fast is in my opinion a trundler..Lets not get carried away, remember Anwar Ali swinging the ball around corners, one thing is doing it against first class pakistani batsmen (who lets face it are by no means the greatest batsmen going) but he is not ready in my opinion to be included in the test team.And this is by no means a dig at the lad, i wish him the greatest of success just as much as any other pakistani supporter.
 
I think I've seen enough bowlers to work out how fast he's bowling.

He could be 5 km/h quicker at most.

how fast was wahab when he first played for pakistan?
how fast was hasan ali when he first played for pakistan?
 
Look at this video and especially where Shahid Nazir praises Asad Raza, Shahid was a pretty good bowler himself and knew how to swing the ball as well (Pak didn't select him again during his prime or else whe would have had a longer career)...he must have seen something to have selected Asad twice and he is heaping quite a bit of praise on him as well:

Rubbish trundler

Lol.

1. He is bowling around 135k

2. If he is a trundler - lets get a team full if these trundlers.

Either u genuinely believe this or you're an attention seeker.

Whichever it is - give the guy a break yaar. Hes only a bacha.
 
He's not a trunder cause reversing means you need decent pace.

I say he's around 130-135kph
